We’re dancing to the Bee Gee’s song:
How Deep is Your Love?
I’m at home in your strong arms.
I nuzzle up to your neck.
I feel you.
I smell you.
I breathe deep because I want more.
I lay my head on your shoulder.
I nuzzle in deeper rubbing my cheeks from side to side on your neck and well-worn shirt; you delight in my movements.
Your arms still around me you bring me in even closer - we keep dancing.
I never want to let go.
I miss you so much.
You tell me you will always be there for me - waiting on the dance floor...and that’s comforting, but it’s not enough ...but it is something.
I will always love you Johnny...but you know that.
